Tophat Placement
I just installed some Dobinson springs on my Bilstein 5100. Noticed that the rubber piece on the tophat is not seated like the other side. Is this okay or do I need to remove everything and redo it? See include picture for reference.

It may not help but I just noticed today that my stock one looks very similar to that. I assumed it was due to settling, but if you just did yours I'm wondering if I need to get that addressed now.

Yea, I'm wondering if I need to redo it. I'm being lazy I don't hear any odd noises from it.

So I reassembled everything and made sure the rubber isolator was lined up and seated flat. However, once I tightened everything and lowered the lower control arm, the rubber isolator flips upward like in the picture. So far, no odd noises or vibrations.
